Chapter 1791: Chapter 1811: The Dignity of the Dragon Clan?_1

Under everyone’s gaze, Lin Chen’s words were like a slap violently landing on Meng Panshi’s face.

Meng Panshi believed he had already backed down a step, yet Lin Chen did not give him any face at all.

Meng Panshi wanted to use this advantageous terrain to complete the negotiation and rescue Meng Ke, but Lin Chen would not entertain negotiations.

"One!"

Meng Panshi was burning with rage, but being hesitant to attack the enemy for fear of hurting one’s loved ones, he did not have any countermeasures.

"If you take her away, how will I confirm Meng Ke’s safety?"

Lin Chen calmly replied: "She is our bargaining chip in the negotiation, we will naturally protect her well. Five days later, negotiate at the Spirit Vein spot... Two!"

Meng Panshi stared at the calm and composed Lin Chen, clenched his fists, but was helpless. He did not wait for Lin Chen to say ’three,’ and immediately said: "Fine, I’ll let you go. Just as you said, in five days, we’ll negotiate at the Spirit Vein spot. If you harm her, I will annihilate your entire sect!"

Lin Chen smiled faintly: "For the safety of our sect disciples, I will take good care of her and won’t allow any accidents to happen. Chief Meng has nothing to worry about."

Meng Panshi glared at Lin Chen for a moment, then turned his head and ordered: "Open the Array Formation, let them go!"

His voice, full of suppressed anger, echoed in the distance.

Soon, the sky’s Array Formation disappeared.

Just as Lin Chen was about to leave, a surprised cry suddenly came from the crowd: "It’s you two! Where is my second brother?"

Lin Chen looked up, it was the eldest son of the General’s Mansion, Meng Hanshan, who looked anxious. Meng Zhan next to him was staring at him in anger, his face full of fury.

Lin Chen calmly replied: "Your second brother, Meng Yan, is also among the captives. We can discuss his fate then. As long as you are cooperative, he will return safely soon."

Meng Hanshan was instantly enraged: "Are those two servants in league with you..."

Lin Chen replied: "It’s just for survival, you would do the same in my place."

Meng Hanshan retorted angrily: "I am of the Dragon Clan, how could I betray my people for my own safety!"

Lin Chen replied coolly: "Your brother is as proud as you, and at first he was just as disobedient. When I broke one of his arms, he stopped talking and simply watched as his servants answered questions for him."

Lin Chen’s words were like a stinging slap falling on Meng Hanshan’s face.

What about Dragon Clan’s dignity?

Who would willingly die for dignity’s sake?

Many of the Dragon Clan’s members’ eyes fell on Meng Hanshan’s face. For a moment, he was red with embarrassment, but could not refute it.

The facts were right there: if it were not for Meng Yan’s cooperation, how could Lin Chen know so much about Meng Ke?

The two servants must have been kept in the dark; it could only have been Meng Yan who betrayed Meng Ke.

Not just Meng Hanshan, many Dragon Clan members at the scene felt their faces burn from shame.

They were just boasting about the honor of the Dragon Clan, and then they were slapped in the face with sarcastic mockery. It was truly humiliating.

Meng Zhan looked at Meng Hanshan with renewed resentment in his heart.

Capturing that boy Meng Ke was your idea, wasn’t it? Didn’t you say he was a captive?

That kid actually still had combat power, and even had such a powerful magical treasure. If it weren’t for your neglect, how could I have brought him to Meng Ke’s side and allowed him to land a fatal blow?

Lin Chen didn’t care about their grudges. He took Meng Ke and flew into the sky with Xi Junshan and others, then headed south.

Upon getting far away from the Rock Tribe, everyone’s mood completely relaxed.

Meng Ke turned her head slightly and coldly said: "No one is threatening you now, can you get away from me?"

Lin Chen released Meng Ke’s neck and put her on the flying boat. He then took two steps back and said apologetically: "I’m sorry, Miss Meng. You’ll have to bear with us for a few days. After negotiations are over, you can safely return."

Meng Ke scoffed: "You’re really something. Playing weak in front of me, trying to gain sympathy. I was really blind to have extended my hand to save you."

Lin Chen let Meng Ke mock him and calmly responded: "Miss Meng comes from a noble background, but she has a kind heart. I took advantage of Miss Meng’s kindness. If you’re upset, feel free to scold me."

The fact that Lin Chen had captured a captive did not make him arrogant. Instead, he sincerely praised Meng Ke’s kindness. This left Meng Ke, who was furious beyond words, unable to vent her anger.

The man openly admitted to using tactics and even praised her for her kindness. If she were to curse him now, wouldn’t she be cursing herself?

Moreover, even if she was to curse him into the dirt, what would it change? After all, he wouldn’t let her go anyway.

Meng Ke coldly asked: "When Meng Zhan brought you here, did he not check you?"

Lin Chen explained: "We disguised the second son of the General’s Mansion, Meng Yan, as a captured human and had his two servants bring us into the city. We originally planned to launch a surprise attack to catch you in the evening. But coincidentally, Meng Hanshan came to claim his prisoners, saying that you wanted a human prisoner to understand the human situation better."

"Meng Hanshan thought we were captives who had been stripped of their power and searched for magical treasures, so he took me away directly and handed me over to Meng Zhan. Meng Zhan assumed Meng Hanshan had dealt with everything and took me directly to you..."
